Chapter 128 Seizing Power 2
Luo Mingfang said urgently, "General Zhang, please speak freely."
Zhang Xun said, "It is said that this is about your Zhangzi camp, and it is inconvenient for our Yijun to intervene. However, in the face of the great enemy, our Yi army is lucky to be in the same boat with you. The difficulties of Zhangzi Camp are the difficulties of our Yi army. Therefore, I don't avoid suspicion and boldly say a few words. Please forgive me for the offending.
"It's easy to say." Hannagan also said anxiously.
Deputy Leader Luo, Lord Hannagan, as the saying goes, the gentleman is selfless! One of them served as the deputy division commander and the other served as the chief of staff. I know that this is two bravely shouldering heavy burdens to serve the country. However, there are more than 8,000 people in the Zhangzi camp, most of whom are laymen, and it is difficult to understand their good intentions. In the eyes of these laymen, the two occupy the high position of deputy division commander and chief of staff to seek high officials for themselves. Lu. In this way, they naturally don't accept it.
Luo Mingfang shouted, "I, Luo Mingfang, swear to God that I will be this deputy division commander without any selfishness!"
Zhang Xun shook his head and said, "I, Zhang Xun, absolutely believe that you two are selfless, but everyone doesn't believe it. Everyone is selfish and takes care of the belly of the two gentlemen. If you want to be deputy division commanders and staff, they will be regimental commanders, battalion commanders and company commanders. The result is a mess. In my humble opinion, as long as Deputy Director Luo takes the initiative to give up the position of deputy division commander and proves that he is single-minded and public with practical actions, the following common people naturally have nothing to say.
"Good! I won't be the deputy teacher!" Luo Mingfang shouted. Luo Mingfang was born in Tianjin Martial Arts School. Before entering the school, he was still a scholar and was also good at marching and fighting. However, he was still a dull scholar. He did not understand Jianghu methods or political tricks. Zhang Xun took the initiative to give up the position of deputy teacher after a few words.
Zhang Xun didn't expect to pull Luo Mingfang's deputy division commander down so smoothly. He was overjoyed, but his face was calm. He said to the crowd, "Deputy Leader Luo is arrogant and bright. I admire him. Deputy commander Luo leads by example. I don't know what else you have to say?"
These generals of Zhang Ziying are all people who have never seen the world. How can they understand Zhang Xun's good intentions?
Naha Wu took the lead and said, "The deputy commander is no longer the deputy division commander. What else do I have to say? I have no dispute. Just be a soldier in the Zhangzi camp."
Naha said on May 1st, and others also echoed. These people originally fought with red faces and thick necks, but now they immediately apologize to each other, saying that they have changed their past and wrongs, put the overall situation first, and share difficulties together in the same boat.
The atmosphere became extremely harmonious. Luo Mingfang looked happy and admired Zhang Xun.
Hannagan said in a hurry, "But there must be someone to be the deputy division commander, otherwise, who will command the troops?"
Zhang Xun's heart was nervous, and he was getting closer and closer to his goal - the annexation of Zhangzi Camp.
"This," Zhang Xun suppressed his heartbeat and said, "I personally think it is better for everyone to vote and choose a highly regarded person as the deputy division commander from the current officers of Zhangzi Camp. Zhang Xun first expressed that my Yijun was saved by Zhangzi Battalion. Since then, 3,000 Yi officers and soldiers have joined Zhangzi Battalion. As long as it is the deputy division commander elected by everyone, no matter who, I, Zhang Xun and the officers and soldiers must resolutely obey the order of the deputy division commander!"
Zhang Xun announced that he would join Zhangzi Camp. In fact, as an officer of Zhangzi Camp, he was also eligible to participate in the election of deputy division commander. Everyone didn't understand Zhang Xun's intentions and thought that he was sincere and applause.
Soon, under the auspices of Luo Mingfang, everyone began to elect the deputy division commander. Seven or eight candidates for deputy division commanders were first proposed, including Naha Wu, Wu Peifu, Yao Xi, Park Yonglie, Zheng Shixiong and others.
No one nominated Zhang Xun, but Zhang Xun was not in a hurry and looked indisputable to the world. It's just a suggestion: the recognized teacher is Zhou Charter, but Zhou Charter can't see things. Therefore, the deputy division commander must act as an agent to exercise the functions and powers of the teacher. Therefore, in order to be cautious and to convince the public, the vote rate of the deputy division commander must exceed 50%. If the vote cannot exceed 50%, even if First, it has to be re-elected.
Zhang Xun's suggestion is reasonable and everyone has no objection.
Then the vote began, and the problem came out. Every candidate doesn't even have one-fifth of the votes.
This result was expected by Zhang Xun.
This Zhangzi camp is actually a hodgepodge. There are all kinds of people in it, with their own mountains and their own forces. They all come for Zhou Charter. Except for Zhou Charter, no one else is enough to convince the public.
Zhang Xun set a 50% vote, which is a trap. None of the generals in Zhangzi Camp can achieve this percentage of votes.
So, as soon as the votes were announced and the quarrel began again, the scene became more discordant. Zhang Xun didn't say a word, put his hands in his arms, and looked at the chaotic venue with great interest.
Luo Mingfang finally couldn't stand it and shouted, "You don't accept me as a deputy teacher, and you can't push a deputy teacher by yourself!" Okay, okay, I mentioned a person. If you don't accept it, I won't care. What do you want!"
"Who did the deputy head of the regiment mention?" Zhang Xun asked hurriedly.
"I will mention Zhang Xun!" Luo Mingfang shouted: "Zhang Xun is a general of the imperial court and has a future. His Yijun has also fought with the Japanese! Moreover, Zhang Xun and his subordinates have joined our Zhangzi Camp, and they are also brothers of our Zhangzi Camp!"
Zhang Xun was ecstatic, but his face looked shocked: "Deputy Leader Luo, never. When he first came here, his seniority is still shallow..."
"General Zhang, don't be modest!" Luo Mingfang shouted, "Now, let's raise our hands and agree that Zhang Xun will be the deputy teacher."
Everyone was stunned first, and then raised their hands one after another.
The result was amazing, with 46 people in the audience, 45 in favor and 1 against. It's much more than 50%!
As soon as Zhou Charter fell ill, there was no leader in Zhangzi Camp. These generals from all over the world did not obey each other. It was impossible to produce a deputy division commander from within Zhangzi Camp. When Zhang Xun first arrived, no one knew him, and he had not offended anyone here, which just became his advantage.
This is the so-called foreign monk who likes to read scriptures!
Everything is within Zhang Xun's calculation!
Luo Mingfang immediately announced: "After democratic election, Zhang Xun will hold the position of deputy division commander of Zhang Ziying!"
Suddenly shouted: "I'm against it!"
Everyone looked up and saw Feng Guozhang jumping up, so angry that his face was black.
When Zhang Xun saw Feng Guozhang, he felt relieved.
He knows the details of Feng Guozhang. Although Feng Guozhang is a seventh-grade cavalry lieutenant and has been valued by Nie Shicheng, but now he is not under Nie Shicheng's account, but in Yizhou, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away. What reassured Zhang Xun more was that Feng Guozhang had no soldiers or guns in his hand.
To put it bluntly, Feng Guozhang is a guy under the shelter of others. In troubled times, he had to rely on the barrel of a gun to speak. The reason why Zhang Xun dared to hit Zhang Ziying's idea was that he had more than 3,000 guns in his hand. If he didn't have a gun in his hand, Zhang Xun would have great ambition and would not dare to make a big in Yizhou City.
Zhang Xun didn't show his face and said, "I, Zhang Xun, was originally a homeless person. I didn't give up on you. I just want to survive. I really dare not overdo it. Since General Feng objected, this position of deputy division commander is not appropriate."
Luo Mingfang was furious: "Feng Guozhang, you don't accept me as a deputy division commander, and you don't accept the deputy division commander elected by everyone. What the hell do you want to do? Is it possible for you to be this deputy teacher?"
Feng Guozhang shouted, "I don't care about any deputy division commanders!" Zhang Xun was cruel and black. At the South Gate, he killed more than 280 people in one breath! This kind of person is the deputy division commander. I'm afraid that Zhang Ziying will become a magic cave in the future!"
Wu Peifu shook his head and said, "General Feng's words are too angry. As the saying goes, it is a classic in troubled times. Wei Rugui's Shengjun was so domineering that he even shot his brother. If he didn't kill him, it was not enough to shock his domineering spirit!" Wu Peifu did not know Zhang Xun, but he was in favor of re-rule of the army. Zhang Xun started to kill in Nancheng. If it were him, Wu Peifu, he would have done so.
"That can't kill so much!" Feng Guozhang shouted, "You can't kill for generals..."
"It's okay!" Luo Mingfang interrupted Feng Guozhang's endless chatter: "You voted against, and the objection is invalid! That's it..."
"I'm not convinced!" Feng Guozhang still wants to argue.
